:You are right. It looks like the late version of the Prince Junior is one of the many avatars of [[Tougodo]]'s Toyocaflex, the Moonflex being another. The history of these Tougodo TLRs is extremely complicated, with really many name variants: Skyflex, Metascoflex, etc. (see [http://www.tlr-cameras.com/Japanese/Tougodo.html here]). I'll add a mention of the last Prince Junior perhaps being made by Tougodo, but will leave aside the Moonflex and other Toyocaflex variants for now. The proper way would be to write something about the Toyocaflex first, then to identify its variations one by one.

You are right. It looks like the late version of the Prince Junior is one of the many avatars of Tougodo's Toyocaflex, the Moonflex being another. The history of these Tougodo TLRs is extremely complicated, with really many name variants: Skyflex, Metascoflex, etc. (see here). I'll add a mention of the last Prince Junior perhaps being made by Tougodo, but will leave aside the Moonflex and other Toyocaflex variants for now. The proper way would be to write something about the Toyocaflex first, then to identify its variations one by one. I've just made a list on the Tougodo page, but it's surely not exhaustive. --rebollo_fr 13:38, 7 January 2011 (EST)
